Did any of you see the article in Golf Digest about George Kelnhofer G.S.E.D.?
It is in the technology section. He and others... developed a system called Hot Lines. They have been working on it for years.

Yeah. I went to the website. I kept laughing at the thought of the ball disappearing in the middle of your downswing. Has to be the most infuriating thing if you have trouble getting it right. But it also has to be a great incentive to make the right move, and it seems to me that it would help to ingrain it faster, because you have to discover the feel of the proper move.

Hmmmm, now I have a good idea how Sir Charles developed his downstroke hitch.

It's funny you say that. I actually had visions of someone being on the course, feeling the wrong move, and stopping mid swing out of habit.

The theory is(negative reinforcement)... if one does not perform a particular task correctly, he will not get his reward, the ball in this case. The ball actually drops down in a hole in the mat if you get off plane, or do various things improperly.

Positive reinforcement, would be if you do the task properly, the ball would pop up. In theory, either way can be used to train people.

Would make more money out of the machine putting in a bar and running a book on how many times it takes a punter to make contact
